Mr. Dulles. Could you identify that for the record—because just reference to documents in our record would be meaningless to the reader. I think we ought to identify each document as we can, because I am lost completely.
Mr. Coleman. It is Commission Exhibit No. 969, which is a draft of the State Department instruction to be sent to the Embassy in Moscow, as a result of the Embassy's dispatch of February 28.
Mr. Dulles. And this was drafted on March 27, was it?
Mr. Coleman. Yes.
Miss Waterman. Yes.
Mr. Dulles. And you, I gather, Miss Waterman, drafted this?
Miss Waterman. I drafted this, and then apparently we had—everyone had second thoughts on some of the statements in there, and I believe that it was at this time—wait a minute.
We sent this to Miss Knight's office for the special attention of Mr. Hickey.
Mr. Coleman. And is that the memorandum dated March 31, 1961?
Miss Waterman. Yes; that is right.
